Pros: |
- Launched in 2004. Mostly focused on girl-girl action (some hardcore ff/m and m/f action but that's an exception, not the rule)
- Picture galleries really stand out. While most sites do them at twisty's they shine.
- High-quality video. It's gotta be 1080 at least cause it looks amazing on my old monitor (no 4K for me)
- as of September 3, 2021, 3519 scenes
- Amazing talent. All my favorite MYLFs are here (Lauren Philips, Brandi Love, Cherie DeVille, Britney Amber), along with lots of new stars (my sense is that many new girls start out with girl/girl shoots). I particularly liked finding: Scarlett Bloom, Kadence Marie, Molly Stewart (and while I'd seen here before ALEX COAL is fantastic)
- Tags available
- Good descriptions of each shoot
- Streaming player has advanced controls (skip 10sor 30s, volume, full-screen toggle)
- like/dislike, favorite, watch later allow for flexible scene sorting.
- short plots than straight to the action
- never a bad shoot Light/audio/drct. all good |
Cons: |
PROS CONT:
- diversity in casting (tattoos, age, ethnicity. Not body shape pretty much everyone is "porn star perfect"
- excellent search features the "filter" really helps narrow down what you're looking for.
- Updates come once a week
CONS
- download will cost you extra (one fee gets you both .zip downloads of photo galleries and video shoots).
- ads behind the paywall. Heck, you have to click past an ad every time you log back in.
- No previewing/trailer available. So you have to check out the pictures or skip through the video to see if it's your thing
- most models have boob jobs. I love all shapes and sizes but I know some have a real aversion to augmentation.
- cross-sales are everywhere. It would be nice if they threw the occasional shoot from one of those sites at you just to see if it was up your alley |
Bottom Line: |
I *hate* the way the industry is moving toward low prices to get in with streaming extra fees for downloads. I know it's fighting the tube sites and such but still, this old-timer doesn't like it one bit. I feel like I'm constantly being hit up for money.
I generally don't buy many girl/girl sites but this one exceeded my expectations. Normally these sites can be overly repetitive; not at twisty's they did a good job of keeping the action moving and different in each scene (that said focus here is on mainstream and
not kink porn).
I went in for a year membership (I figured with streaming-only I didn't want to be rushed in testing them out). While I'm not disappointed. I won't be re-upping either. My main motivation was wanting to check out Holly Randell's work. I've been listening to her podcasts and wanted to see it for myself (twisty's is also a sponsor of her podcast) so I guess advertising works)
I went with a B+ grade because they do everything well but are not killing it. I think there must be better all-girl stuff out there somewhere. I like that they have good organization and a deep catalog. But the big killers are not being able to download (I'm sure others know how to cheat that - but I'm not interested). Also holding them back is a general timidness. There's no character here. Other than all girl/girl what's the hook? (Maybe I'm jaded and that should be enough - fair enough)
Twisty's is above average in every way (booking/directing/production) I don't think I saw a bad shoot of anything in the last 2 years). That said there's nothing that's standout or exemplary either. They do very well. But they're not pushing themselves (and maybe they don't need to, to hit the target audience they're going for) |
